    ^^ As well as Albert Tatlock, Minnie Caldwell would be on my list too.

    I had already mentioned her a few posts before :) - she came to mind before Albert.

    Scooter was Emily's lodger and Leanne's sister's boyfriend....if I remember there was some protest about chopping some tree's down...Emily was one of the main protesters climbing up a tree and refusing to get down........Scooter left the street on pretence of moving to London to live with Toyah who was living down there.....

    The show has had so many iconic characters over the years it's difficult to narrow them down to just 10.

    Hilda.
    Annie Walker.
    Ena Sharples.
    Mavis.
    Bet Lynch.
    Deidrie Barlow.
    Ken Barlow.
    Mike Baldwin.
    Elsie Tanner.
    Rita.
